    Me too. Mrs. blackcat made that call. I would have held out for 50F. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    For those of us in the warmer climates :
    I assume you guys are referring to your home heating costs ?
    Deductive reasoning would imply you would incur a larger bill if you start using your home heater earlier in the season.
    Am I correct with my assumption ?

    Accurate reasoning. Through the summer my natural gas bill stays around $25USD. In the coldest part of winter it peaks around $170USD. It's a local custom to put off starting up the furnace as long as possible.

    On the other side of the earth, you're probably coming into summer, the warmest part of the year. =^..^=

    Yes we are coming into the warmer summer months now. We do the same as you guys I guess, but in reverse with Air-conditioning and cooling. We have a general house rule to keep the home Air conditioner off for as long as we can so the electrickery costs are kept minimal. To much airconditioning makes you want to stay indoors, an we tend to become a lazy couch potato, or in my case a PC addict.

    I have my official Jury Duty starting today so won't have to worry about the home/office airconditioner for another 3 weeks....

    Good luck with Jury Duty!
    I got the letter for Jury Duty once, but there was a fair chance I was on active duty for Desert Storm at the time and was around a thousand miles away from my home of record. So I got an automatic out.

    We fitted solar panels to the roof last year so we can run the aircon during the day with a clear conscience that we are helping to cut greenhouse gasses and keeping the power bill to a minimum.


    I did my civic duty and did my stint on a jury panel. Interesting to see how the law works close up and it aint anything like the TV shows, it's not fast paced and all over in 55 minutes. It took a week to work our way through a rape case involving uni students and at the end we only got the choice of guilty or not guilty when we really wanted to bang their heads together and tell them to grow up and act like adults!
    At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.
